I have a XT-2 since december 2016 with 3 lenses: Fujinon XF 23mm F2 R WR, XF 35mm 1.4 R and XF 56mm 1.2 R. Bought it because of the small size and all the good reviews. But i don't use it, don't like it:  i prefer to shoot with Sony mirrorless. So it has only 4.000 clicks. 

Try to sell it for a nice price: € 2.250 for the whole set (new price is € 3.600). The gear is as new and under warranty for the next years. But no one wants to buy the set. There are a lot of used XT-2 for sale. I sold Canon gear before and that was sold for a good price in a couple of days.

So i think the Fuji gear is overpriced and overrated. It isn't much worth when selling it. You should be aware of that when buying it.

On reflection what rokphish and Warwick say is as it is, I wouldn't buy a complete set camera and lenses. X-T2 with 23mm yes and the other lenses separately might get a better response.

Shame you don't like them but I think that selling them as a set rather than individually means that unless someone wants exactly what you have to offer, you limit your options.

 

As to overpriced, have you seen how much Sony lenses are being sold at and where exactly are the Sony 35/f2 (23/2) and the 80/f1.2 (56/1.2) to be found? As to over rated, I and many others disagree.

    • Anyone out there have any experience/feedback on the Laowa 55 mm tilt shift? I’d be using it on the GFX 50s ii. 
    • Hi, I'm researching a gimbal to get someone as a present & they use a Fuji XS-10. I did a quick search of previous threads on gimbals but all of them seem to either get no replies or spammed by a link to an Amazon list. I'd appreciate any comments from folks who've actually used specific gimbals with the XS-10. I'm aware that some, such as certain models from Zhiyun, DJI & FeiyuTech either don't say that they are fully compatible with the XS-10 but other sites say they do work ok but some functions don't. It's quite difficult to work out which functions work & which don't. Thanks.

    • This was snapped during a lunch.  Total shooting time—a few seconds. We so often read that a proper "portrait" should be snapped with a longer than normal lens, a low ISO to get lots of detail, and have a soft light held up above the head, and slightly to the side. The key, in my opinion, is always carry a camera.  Have your camera available to capture candid, authentic photographs.  Available light, no posing.   This portrait used 2000 ISO, the lens wide open at f4, and 1/100 sec. to stop any movement.  I didn't even take time to compose—I just snapped.  I leave the "Face Detection" on unless I'm photographing a landscape or subject other than a person. The GFX100RF has the equivalent of a 28mm lens.  The large sensor renders fine detail even at fairly high ISO ratings.  And the drawing of the lens is just perfect in my opinion.  It was set to B & W, with slightly reduced sharpness and clarity (set in-camera).  Ideal for "portraits."  Now, for some subjects I will likely increase the sharpness and clarity to the normal setting.  The camera is new, and I'm still experimenting with it.
